  • Thanks, this really helped, but I'm still a little confused on something. For the top picture that shows the notes in order on the bar, it doesn't display all of the notes from the guitar picture, are those just useless? Do they come in later? I'm still kind of new to playing the guitar so can anyone help???

  • @GrantTudor the reason is because showing all the notes on a 24 fret guitar would be overkill for a diagram where 90% of most beginner chords are within the first 3 frets.

  • how do u know what string to play the note

    

  • @rampu43 unisons. multiple notes can be played on multiple locations throughout the guitar. More on my website

  • That's a great little tutorial. The only question I have is what happens if the notes are meant to be played further up the neck? How is that explained in notation? As far as I can tell only the first 3 frets and the open strings are covered.

    Thanks for making this video it's very kind of you.

  • @JoeBlue727 there are unisons on guitar. so a note on a music staff can actually be played at multiple postions on the neck in some cases

  • that dot bouncing around gave me a seizure

  • What I dont understand is while playing guitar, you dont just play notes, you play chords. I understand how to read all the notes on the sheet music, but how do you make them into chords?
